Texas officials have threatened to strip funding from districts, decertify teachers and replace elected trustees with a state-appointed board of managers.

    Divisive crosscurrents in Crockett-Talarico Senate showdown threaten Democratic unity ... and more news

    While Crockett and Talarico aren’t hurling insults at each other, their supporters, especially online, have been bickering over the candidates’ perceived failings with some of the exchanges tinged with racial overtones, even if unintentional.

    SportsDay Rangers, Episode 26: The one with Doug Melvin

    John and Evan break down the start of camp (at least before Sebastian Walcott got hurt) before former Rangers GM Doug Melvin joins the show. With this being the 30th anniversary of the Rangers' first playoff team, the fellas will occasionally look back at key members from that team -- and Melvin put together an incredibly durable pitching staff. He also revisits some of the trades he was most proud of and some he wasn't. And then, John regales with tales of the Rangers' first spring training site, a high school baseball field in Pompano Beach, Fla., where Pete Incaviglia once hit a baseball straight through the wooden fence.
